Hi team, we are observing a pattern of latency increase daily in Pinot query. E.g. p95 increase from <100ms to 400ms, and this increase last for less then a hour each day. Is there some system metrics we could look at to identify t root cause for this?
m
Check for data push, qps increase, segments flush in RT to begin with
c
It’s a offline table. We push data to multiple tables at different time each day. All these table seems to follow the same pattern of latency increase at similar time.
There does seem to be increases of Qps at some hours of each day. But the brokers CPU has been always less than 10%. Should we start considering increase broker amount?
m
Just to confirm, you are saying that data push does not align with latency increase, but read qps increase does? If so, what's the server side CPU usage?
c
Yes, the Qps is more align with the latency increases. Server CPU also increases almost the same time, but still less than 10%
m
How's the IO?
c
You mean server disk usage? Or doc scanned?
m
Disk reads
Also, is the server CPU at peak time more than normal?
c
Server CPU peak time is 10% normally it’s 1%
We do not have disk IO metrics, but I can see scanned docs increases 10 times more daily at the peak time than normal of a day.
Just checked the fs read total is also aligned with the latency increases.

How have you configured your partitions? Could those be contributing to increased latency?
m
How much data per server and how what’s the memory available?
